3 Outline : Premises 1. Optimal STEMI care requires a dual reperfusion strategy (primary PCI and fibrinolysis) 2. Following fibrinolysis the pharmacoinvasive strategy improves outcomes and should be employed with: 1. Clinical vigilance for reperfusion success and urgent catheterization in the setting of reperfusion failure (rescue) or with early recurrent ischemia 2. Following successful pharmacological reperfusion a scheduled early angiography (6-24 hours) is warranted 3. An example of a real world pharmacoinvasive strategy - Vital Heart Response

4 Reperfusion Therapy Impact of Time to Treatment Classic Experiments in Animal Models -Ischemic necrosis begins within minutes of coronary occlusion -Reperfusion within the first hour salvages nearly two-thirds of the myocardium at risk thereafter abrupt declining such that little or no myocardial salvage is evident after three to six hours of occlusion.

9 Premise 1 - Summary Primary PCI is the dominant reperfusion strategy but Timely primary PCI remains improbable for many STEMI patients despite improved time to treatment in regional STEMI programs Primary PCI is multi-disciplinary, time-sensitive, and its success if based on the operators experience 2. The majority of benefit of primary PCI over fibrinolysis is achieved in the approximately 25% of patients presenting with high risk features 3. The acceptable delay for withholding pharmacological reperfusion in anticipation of PCI is not static and is dependent upon individual patient and temporal characteristics In patients with clinical characteristics that predict complications of pharmacological reperfusion; a longer delay to Primary PCI is justified In early presenting patients (<3 hours) the acceptable delay is abbreviated

10 Pharmacoinvasive Strategy Definition Following evidence based fibrinolysis with appropriate conjunctive anticoagulant and antiplatelet therapy; Failure to Successfully Reperfuse Rescue angiography assessed as <50% ST resolution in the worst lead ST elevation at 90 minutes (60-90 minutes) Hemodynamic instability or refractory ventricular arrhythmia Urgent Angiography following successful reperfusion early (< 6 hours) recurrent ischemia Successful Reperfusion Scheduled angiography within 6-24 hours following successful fibrinolysis (>50% ST resolution in worst lead ST elevation) Armstrong et al, Am Heart J Jul;160(1):30-35

31 Summary 1. In 2013, optimal STEMI care requires regional access to primary PCI and fibrinolysis with an individual patient risk - based reperfusion strategy 2. Following fibrinolysis the pharmacoinvasive strategy improves outcomes and should be employed within a dedicated STEMI system of care

32 Summary Pharmacoinvasive 3. Clinical vigilance for reperfusion success and urgent catheterization in the setting of reperfusion failure (rescue) or with early recurrent ischemia is warranted To date limited predictors exist for the need for rescue 4. Following successful fibrinolysis - scheduled early angiography (6-24 hours) should be encouraged Provides an optimal medical and interventional interplay with excellent patient outcomes and rational cost effective approach to revascularization
